Glenfield Plantation Bed and Breakfast

  • Inn Details

    Glenfield Plantation is a picturesque cottage-villa in the midst of wild landscape and the home of Marjorie F. Meng, fourth generation. On the National Register of Historic Places, this brick English Gothic is from a period around 1845, & parts of the house are thought to have been constructed around 1812. There is an air of substantial comfort in the house with its double halls & galleries in front & back, features which realize the idea of simplicity and breadth. The back porches enclosed with hand-hewn blinds are also used for a summer dining room. Each bedroom has a private bath, fireplace & antiques throughout. Historic artifacts say much about the house, including a charred spinning wheel saved from a house set afire by the Indians or the bullet hole in the right front door from the Civil War. Medals & buttons have even been found in the backyard, bearing evidence of this fact! Glenfield Plantation offers a continental or full Southern breakfast for guests with all the trimmings. Biking and hiking are not far. Nearby, visitors can pass the time with tennis, golf or swimming. March and October bring the Antebellum Tour of Homes, but most homes are open year round. Balloon races in October are visible from the grounds & the house is one mile from riverboat gaming as well as Natchez under the Hill. Mardi Gras parades & balls are always festive during the season.

    What a wonderful experience. My wife and I, and another couple, spent the night at Glenfield. Ms Meng is the epitome of southern hospitality. We enjoyed her company and the history of her family home and the area. Very highly recommmended!!

    This home was an ideal setting for my trip to Natchez. Located outside the city, but a short drive to downtown, my husband and I enjoyed the peace and serienity of this home. The owners are delightful and the home and sleeping rooms are furnished with antiques which provided us the atmosphere we were looking for. Loved It and we will return!

    During our trip to Texas, my husband and I decided to stay in Natchez at Glenfield. We are so glad we did! This beautiful privately owned home sets on about 150 acres just minutes away from downtown Natchez. We enjoyed the owner and the town so much, we extended our stay for 3 nights. I would recommend this property for anyone who enjoys the peace and quietness a city cannot offer. The grounds are ideal if you have children as we did and are traveling. Lots of space for them to run and play. Upon arrival, you are given a tour and offered a glass of wine, or refreshment. The Southern cooked breakfast was delicious every morning. Whether traveling for the Balloon Race, or the Pilgrimage Home Tours, this home is a must for staying in Natchez!
